The initiative emphasises science and technology as foundational for effective, sustainable solutions, including optimising over 100 Temporary Waste Collection Points (TPS 3R) focused on reduce, reuse, and recycle principles, with active involvement from universities in fieldwork and research. This approach aims to address urban waste dominated by organic household refuse, reducing the burden on final disposal sites and enhancing overall system efficiency through upstream interventions and behavioural changes.",
        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Ministry of Education, Higher Education,\nScience, and Technology (Kemdiktisaintek) is promoting the acceleration\nof national waste management through strengthened cross-sectoral\ncollaboration based on technology and innovation. This was conveyed\nduring a meeting between the Minister of Education, Higher Education,\nScience, and Technology (Mendiktisaintek) Brian Yuliarto and the\nMinister of Environment (Menteri LH) Hanif Faisol Nurofiq at the\nKemdiktisaintek office in Jakarta on Tuesday. The Mendiktisaintek\nemphasised that a science and technology-based approach is a crucial\nfoundation for formulating effective and sustainable waste management\nsolutions. \u201cWhat we have designed previously is a macro template. After\nassessing the field conditions, we will utilise the existing TPS 3R\nreduce, reuse, recycle database to promptly move to the implementation\nstage,\u201d said Minister Brian in an official statement. In this context,\nKemdiktisaintek is encouraging the optimisation of more than 100\nTemporary Waste Collection Points (TPS 3R) that are already available as\npart of strengthening upstream waste management. Universities, according\nto Brian, will be actively involved in this process, both through\ncontributions from lecturers, researchers, and students in field\nsurveys, mapping, and technical studies. On the same occasion, the\nMinister of Environment expressed appreciation for Kemdiktisaintek\u2019s\nsupport in strengthening the scientific basis of waste management\npolicies, where collaboration with academics is key to ensuring that\npolicies can be implemented effectively. \u201cThe Ministry of Environment\nwill review research and formulations from academic colleagues, so that\nfield implementation can proceed more harmoniously,\u201d stated Minister\nHanif. Furthermore, he indicated that the government is also promoting\nthe strengthening of the waste management ecosystem, which prioritises\nupstream interventions through the utilisation of technology and changes\nin public behaviour. \u201cThis approach is important given that urban waste\naccumulation is still dominated by household waste with a high organic\ncomposition, thus necessitating a reduction in the processing burden at\nFinal Disposal Sites (TPA) while increasing the overall efficiency of\nthe waste management system,\u201d remarked Hanif Faisol Nurofiq.<\/p>",
